problem...

It didn't quite end up the way I thought it would.

After dvd 4 I figured that things were going to turn out nasty - in a relationship way too. However, it wasn't really the case. The relationship part is actually ok at the end of the show (although it is dubious as to how much of Chise is actually left in episode 12)


My idea is to make a video to the beautiful song Last Goodbye by Jeff Buckley. It will still work, I think, but with a little forcing. Footage choice will be key... but I'm worried that I might be veering off too much from the original plot.

Here are the lyrics:


This is our last goodbye
I hate to feel the love between us die
but it's over
just hear this and then i'll go
you gave me more to live for
more than you'll ever know

This is our last embrace
Must i dream and always see your face?
Why can't we overcome this wall?
Well, maybe it's just because i didn't know you at all

Kiss me, please kiss me
but kiss me out of desire, babe, and not consolation
You know it makes me so angry 'cause i know that in time
I'll only make you cry, this is our last goodbye

Did you say "no, this can't happen to me,"
and did you rush to the phone to call (difficult lyric)
Was there a voice unkind in the back of your mind
saying 'maybe you didn't know him at all
you didn't know him at all, oh, you didn't know'

Well, the bells out in the church tower chime
burning clues into this heart of mine
thinking so hard on her soft eyes and the memories
offer signs that it's over... it's over



I'm still going to try doing it - I've got ideas for the footage that should really match the tone of the song and there's enough prettiness to keep things moving along. It should be good - but I am a little concerned as to how well the idea fits the anime having seen the end.

I will make this video for Jacon - I know romance/drama videos are so overdone but not by me and I can't actually do my comedy video until I get some final footage from a friend so I guess I'll save the comedy video for another time.

I am going to do a "Sonne" by Rammstein to Saikano...

I do love the series... and I do agree... I like the end... and I like how the love is never pure.
